In this paper the author presents his PhD proposal about a framework to support rapid and informed decision-making for test management in the context of iterative and evolutionary development. The objective is to continually focus testing on the value it provides for the project and, thus, enable effective and efficient testing even under uncertainty and schedule pressure","PeriodicalId":171484,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 19th International Conference on Automated Software Engineering, 2004.","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131432022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although such identification is important, it may not necessarily be the only source of performance deficiency. This work presents a performance tool called RCAT that detects a new type of performance deficiency referred to as redundant computation. Redundant computation is the execution of a statement(s) that does not influence the program output. Our experience showed that significant performance improvements might be achieved as a result of elimination or reduction of redundant computations. RCAT helps the programmers to improve their C programs by localizing the potential performance deficiencies.","PeriodicalId":171484,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 19th International Conference on Automated Software Engineering, 2004.","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114723190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the lack of completely automated methodologies and the need of special skills for early software performance modelling and analysis prevent their introduction in real industrial context. The availability of such automation should facilitate the application of these methodologies on industrial products without delaying the software development process.
